    It’s always fun listening to Berners fetishizing the Scandinavian economic model. Until you break the news to them that those countries lack a minimum wage

    I haven’t yet watched the full debate from last night. But I did catch the part where Bloomberg made a Freudian slip and said he bought the current democratic congress.

    Wow. That's really weird because that's incorrect af. Your source suggests that foreigners might have to pay a vat tax on certain things but trust me when I say American citizens don't pay vat tax.

    I mean, just google "does the US have a vat tax" and see what comes up. Where did you even find that source? And how?

    Tourists get a refund on products they purchase in the US and take back home, as with most countries

    It's just states based in the US instead of federal, but you do pay it

    What is the Difference Between Sales Tax and VAT?

    And Norway pays pensions out of the national soveriegn fund set up from oil profits

    That is everyone else in the world that brought oil or gas from Norway paid for Norway's pensioners

    He’s told us his MO a hundred times. Probably reacting to what he considers hysteria and “ faux outrage” and set himself up as a foil for his own amusement.

    here is some info from a quick googling...

    it goes on to say this:


    The article then gives a breakdown of the higher-than-usual incomes by industry. But it's long... and unnecessary.

    Why would you try and paint it otherwise...

  16. Only two out of one hundred people die of coronavirus. And oh yeah, a case just popped up in California and the man hadn't been out of the country or in contact with any carriers. So I don't know what the hysteria is all about. This is fine.

    this concerned me a little. But it's a reassurance when they compare the statistics for this illness with influenza and SARS. This one is less fatal.

    Coronavirus Disease 2019 vs. the Flu
